The rush to accuse, without anything approaching due diligence, artists of using "AI," should be treated with contempt. An artist gets their work *ripped off* to train a plagiarism machine, which then shits out inferior versions of that work, so then you accuse the artist of using "AI"? Fuck you.

Ben will soon learn that he can't handle everything life throws at him on his own. #WIPsnips #writingcommunity #MatchmakerKitten

Ben looked at Sesame, who was now awake and on a mission to explore the world on clumsy paws. He laid his arm across the table to stop her from falling off.
He’d been looking forward to going home with Sesame, but this rescue had made a big dent in his bank account—one Rose’s order would make up for entirely. With his full focus on the task, he could probably make quick work of it. And then he’d finally get to relax with the new member of his family. “I’ll see what I can—”

CW: references to past and present domestic abuse (through the POV of an adult son), as well as past childhood abuse. From my bully redemption MM romance (title TBD). #WIPsnips #WritingCommunity

One of his mom’s crutches clattered to the floor as she reached for it. Antoine bent down and handed it to her. “Tell me what you need,” he said as she struggled to get up. “I’ll get it for you.”
“Can you bring the toilet to me?” she asked, a teasing spark in her eyes.
It made his blood boil.
It had always been like this. She’d downplay her injuries with humor, making his younger self admire her strength and tenacity. But in trying to spare him, she’d only taught him that violence was an inevitable, banal part of life.
When he’d first come to that realization, his admiration had turned into resentment. And then he’d blamed her for everything—for his explosive temper, for his inability to find a girl he wasn’t repulsed by, for letting his father do what he did to her. To them.
She’d been the perfect culprit because she was the victim.
He still hated himself for it.

Ben doesn't lack assurance when it comes to his craft. In fact, one could say it sometimes borders arrogance. #WIPsnips #WritingCommunity #MatchmakerKitten

“No.” Rose sighed. “See, there’s this couple celebrating their 30th anniversary tomorrow. Last time they were in town, they tried your doughnuts, and now they’re obsessed. They wanted to serve them during the reception, but you were on vacation and, well, they opted for Natalie’s cupcakes instead”—her voice lowered to a conspiratorial murmur—“but we both know how uninspired her creations are. Yours, on the other hand, are an absolute delight.”
Ben rolled his eyes at her blatant attempt at flattering his ego. He knew his doughnuts by far outranked Nathalie’s cupcakes; it needed no telling.

Another one from Miraculous Horrors ... this had to be a Dainn snip because Dainn really, really hates delays. #WIPSnips #WIP #AmWriting #WritingPrompts #Writers #Writing #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #SciFi #SFF #ScienceFiction

“I’m gonna let you have a look at the most beautiful view on Saxum,” Yago told Riven. “What do you think?”
Dainn’s head came up at that. “Unnecessary delay. And if you mean out in the open, outside of the truck, too risky.”
Yago bit into a piece of hardtack and made a face. “Because you think she might run? You said she was smart.”
“I also said she was wily.”
“I can go sit in the cab if you two would like to have a private conversation about me,” Riven said.

#WIPSnips Sept 27 - delay Chicory and Silas are going on a little day trip. Chicory is a worrywart, but Silas doesn’t mind!

Chicory made him stand by the garden gate, basket resting on the wall, as Chicory flitted around and checked things. He reminded the animals and birds that he’d be back soon and to be good while he was gone. He checked on the new buds in the daffodils, he spoke with the insects, all while Silas hummed patiently. While Chicory felt a bit guilty, Silas didn’t seem to mind the delay.

From my bully redemption MM romance (title TBD). Poor Samuel just found out that LankySquash, the online friend he's been confiding in for a year, is actually his former high school bully. Neither of them knew until now. Is ten years enough for old wounds to heal? #WIPsnips #WritingCommunity

Samuel’s phone vibrated again. A zucchini with tattoos and sunglasses appeared on his screen. He considered rejecting the call and saying he was on his way to work, but he couldn’t bring himself to. It would only delay the inevitable for a few hours, during which he’d be too anxious to be functional.

#WIPSnips Sept 26 - observe Chicory takes his job taking care of the garden and the creatures within seriously.

The butterflies and bees opted to sit out and observe, but that was their right. All Chicory could do was ask, he could not force them. A flower fairy’s job was to watch over the garden, to help every living creature within it. But he was not their master.

Ben returns from a three-week vacation to a monstrosity across the street from his gourmet doughnut shop. #WIPsnips #WritingCommunity #MatchmakerKitten

Ben slowed to a stop, the early morning sun warming his skin as he studied that thing that wasn’t there before he left for his vacation. Black brick, black window panes, black awning, and of course, black planters with artificial black bushes. What the hell was this?
He looked left and right in search of answers, but the street was deserted. His neighboring businesses were still closed at this hour, which meant he was left speculating. Nothing good ever came out of that.

“Bonjour, neighbor!” the man said cheerfully. He ran across the empty street, his curly black hair bouncing with each long stride.
His face wasn’t familiar, but Ben would recognize that accent anywhere—the singsong cadence, the sharp-edged consonants. He’d heard it every day for over two decades before moving all the way across Canada.

#WIPSnips Sep 19 - tube tube -> line (I’m going by Merriam-Webster here) Silas is pretty good for the garden, isn’t he, Chicory?

He flew to the oak, darting down to the ground when he realized that flying above the blooms would make it easier for Silas to spot him. As the morning light filtered overhead, breaking through the green sprouts and the rainbow of flowers, Chicory had to smile. The garden was healthier than before. He rested a hand on the stem of a marigold and felt it.
A line of ants marched in front of him, chirping their morning greetings until he gingerly stepped over them. Roly-pollies and beetles crawled along, happy for the extra room in the flower beds. Chicory walked through, soaking it all in and sighing. As much as Chicory wanted to deny it, Silas had been good for the garden even if he had been bad for Chicory.

The authors who inspire you most have bad writing days too. Days where they want to throw every word in the garbage. Or they just can't write at all. You just never hear about them. A writing career looks effortless from the outside, but the reality is anything but.

Hooray!! I got a lovely piece from @ascoresdalua.bsky.social of Micah from Sweet & Wild! This is an AU in which he's a forest spirit! (I actually wrote a threadfic about a role swap AU, so this a good example of what he'd look like!)

A drawing of a young man sitting on a stump in the forest. He's tilting his head back slightly, closing his eyes, and smiling as he soaks in the sun. He has curly blond hair with small flowers growing between the tresses, long pointed ears, and freckles. He's wearing a white button down shirt with flower embroidery on the collar, brown pants, and no shoes. His arms sport flower tattoos and flowers grow around him on the forest floor. Bees buzz happily around his head

The commission gods are smiling on me today, because another piece arrived! This time, an intimate moment between Galen and Sasha done by @maysarart.bsky.social! He did such a wonderful job of capturing their relationship! I really love it! 💛

Galen and Sasha from The Need for Dandelions in an intimate moment. They are both nude and sitting on a bed. Sasha, a tall, muscular man with short light brown hair, sits behind Galen. He holds his side gently as his stokes Galen's cock. His lips are beside Galen's ear and he's watching him with soft eyes. Galen, a shorter man with long, auburn hair in a bun and a scar on his face, neck, and shoulder, sits in front of Sasha. His back is against Sasha's chest as one hand reaches back to hold onto Sasha while the other holds the wrist of Sasha's hand that is stroking Galen's cock. His knees are drawn together and his eyes are closed as he breathes carefully.
